Leah was out at a restaurant for dinner when the bill came. Her dinner came to $9.

She wanted to leave a 16% tip. How much was her meal plus the tip, before tax, in
dollars and cents?

Answer:

$10.44

Explanation:

9(0.16)

1.44

9+1.44

10.44

Hope this helps

Btw I got .16 because in order to get a decimal you move the decimal place two to the left. And in this case the 16 has an imaginary decimal after it. Like so 16. So two to the left. .16
